This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast; I am delighted to welcome Jason Gelineau. Jason is the answer to a The Joy of Cruising Podcast trivia question, as he is the dad of a previous guest, the lovely violinist and cruise ship performer and Grammy winner, Emily Gelineau, my guest for <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/episodes/17534924'>Ep 199</a> but I certainly don’t mean to trivialize Jason’s appearance. In my view, Jason transcends cruising similar to certain other guests I have hosted like travel and hospitality icons Scott Eddy <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/13060924'>Ep 29</a>, and Sarah Dandashy <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/15750323'>Ep 130</a>; or individuals who transcend the history of consumer cruising like Joe Farcus, the designer of Carnival’s fleet from inception through 2011 <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/13168367'>Ep 30</a>; Richard Fain, Chairman, Royal Caribbean Group <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/episodes/18066214'>Ep 215</a>, Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, former CEO, Celebrity Cruises <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/14295341'>Ep 81</a>, and finally, featured through his daughter, the late Everett Philips, the father of modern cruise ship Food &amp; Beverage <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/13934891'>Ep 57</a>.  Jason Gelineau is a highly regarded luxury cruise industry expert with more than 30 years of experience across shipboard operations, shoreside leadership, and global cruise brand development. Throughout his career, Jason has worked with some of the world’s most prestigious cruise brands, including Silversea Cruises, Seabourn, Oceania Cruises, and the World of Residensea. He previously served as Head of Product for Explora Journeys, where he led the development of the onboard guest experience for MSC Group’s luxury lifestyle cruise brand, shaping its hospitality concept, service philosophy, and experiential vision from inception to launch. Based in Western Australia, Jason is the founder of JAG Hospitality, a specialist cruise and hospitality consultancy, and currently serves as a Seatrade Cruise Ambassador for Guest Experience and Wellness. A frequent speaker and moderator at international cruise forums, he is widely recognized for his insight into luxury cruising, evolving guest expectations, and the future of high-end experiences at sea.Do you have a dream car? <a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth">Support the show</a>Support thejoyofcruisingpodcast <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/new'>https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/new</a> Support Me <a href='https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth'>https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth</a> Contact Me <a href='https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.html'>https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.html</a> Book Cruises <a href='http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/'>http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/</a> US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast) The Joy of Cruising <a href='https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruising'>https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruising</a> Cruising Interrupted <a href='https://bit.ly/CruisingInterrupted'>https://bit.ly/CruisingInterrupted</a> The Joy of Cruising Again <a href='https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgain'>https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgain</a> Intl Orders via Amazon

This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast; I am delighted to welcome Josianne Jocelyn, Travel With Josianne. Josianne worked for several years for different travel agencies. Josianne told me, “I was born in Haiti. I came to the US 40 years ago. I come from a family of 6 children (like me). I lived in Brooklyn through high school. (Like me, well, through middle school). After earning a bachelor’s degree, I knew working in the Travel industry is what I wanted to do.  My first trip given to me by the agency was a cruise on the Big Red Boat, and I realized that I loved cruising.  I got married and gave birth to twin girls. When I moved to New Jersey several years later, I had to work part time, because I was the one taking care of the kids.  2020 change everything. I started to watch YouTube travel videos. Someone told me I should start a YouTube channel, and I did.  I did not know how hard it would be. I have been traveling the Caribbean for years by land and sea. Celebrity and Royal are my favorite cruise lines. On Royal I have been on the Icon, Oasis, Quantum and Freedom classes. I’ve been cruising Celebrity for 30 years. Now I’m in love with the Edge Class. I do travel by land. My favorite Caribbean Islands to go to and spend a week with the family are Aruba, Grand Cayman, Providenciales, Turks &amp; Caicos, and Curacao. My favorite all-inclusive is Sandals, having been to Sandals Montego Bay, Royal Caribbean, Curacao, and Regency Le Toc St Lucia.” Do you have a dream car? <a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth">Support the show</a>Support thejoyofcruisingpodcast <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/new'>https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/new</a> Support Me <a href='https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth'>https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth</a> Contact Me <a href='https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.html'>https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.html</a> Book Cruises <a href='http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/'>http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/</a> US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast) The Joy of Cruising <a href='https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruising'>https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruising</a> Cruising Interrupted <a href='https://bit.ly/CruisingInterrupted'>https://bit.ly/CruisingInterrupted</a> The Joy of Cruising Again <a href='https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgain'>https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgain</a> Intl Orders via Amazon

Worked three years in that field on tv, radio and newspapers, then moved on into it. She said it was exciting to be a journalist but tiring. Internet journalism, websites and then a got a job in it further. After seven years Tiana “jumped” at the opportunity to work on a cruise ship to work as a bar waitress—for the first time in her life. Bored with 8-4 life and having a sister working on ships.

This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast; I am delighted to welcome back Colin Stewart. Colin was a guest along with another Future Cruise Director, Nick Jackson, when I featured the new brand Cruise with Colin and Nick, <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/14707747'>Episode 88</a>. I featured Nick in my latest book, The Joy of Cruising Again, and when interviewing Nick for The Joy of Cruising Again he mentioned that he and another aspiring cruise director, Colin were partnering to launch Cruise with Colin and Nick, a YouTube channel that chronicles their journey toward a mutual goal. Colin just told me, “I’ve been taking initiative of doing my travel content and really focusing on high-quality videos. I took five total cruises in the last 45 days of the year. I went on Royal Caribbean as a partner for my first time, additionally, this was my first cruise with them. I am planning to go get my Seafair’s Watch training certificate in Fort Lauderdale along with my small motorboat certification and ENG 2, which allows me to work on yachts as a deck hand. I’m focusing on getting my certifications, so I am able to start to work on cruise ships. I’m still living out in Arizona however I’m thinking about moving to Florida. I’m taking a break in my education to go chase my dreams of what I’ve been wanting to do since I was 12. I plan to continue school online after this year when I get my certifications.” Today I want to check in with Colin regarding his progress toward his goal, and in general to catch up on what’s been going on in the two years since we last spoke. Do you have a dream car? <a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth">Support the show</a>Support thejoyofcruisingpodcast <a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/new'>https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/new</a> Support Me <a href='https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth'>https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulth</a> Contact Me <a href='https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.html'>https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.html</a> Book Cruises <a href='http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/'>http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/</a> US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast) The Joy of Cruising <a href='https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruising'>https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruising</a> Cruising Interrupted <a href='https://bit.ly/CruisingInterrupted'>https://bit.ly/CruisingInterrupted</a> The Joy of Cruising Again <a href='https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgain'>https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgain</a> Intl Orders via Amazon
